Q: How can I protect my house from a sump pump failure?

• <div><p>Thankfully, you do have a few <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-keep-your-sump-pump-running.htm">sump pump backup options</a> in case it fails. One option is a battery-powered backup sump pump. Another option is using a portable backup generator as a power supply for your sump pump. Unlike a battery-powered backup which has limited power, a generator can run around the clock for as long as you need it. </p><p>Or you can opt for a water-powered backup pump, which uses your home&rsquo;s water supply as a source of power. However, this may not be the best option if you find your house frequently has low water pressure.</p></div>

Q: How hard is it to add a basement to an existing house?

• <div><p>The difficulty of adding a basement to an existing house can vary depending on the house&rsquo;s location, the size of the basement, and the type and condition of the existing foundation. Adding a basement is a job best handled by the pros, so you&rsquo;ll need to enlist professional help for this project.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to have a vented or sealed crawl space?

• <div><p>It is better to have a crawl space that is tailored to the outside temperature, your needs, and the season. For example, it is much better to have a vented space when it&rsquo;s very hot outside and your AC bills are sky-high. Conversely, when the temperature drops and humidity rises, it is almost always better to have your vents shut and covered if possible. </p></div>

Q: How expensive is moisture barrier padding?

• <div><p>Generally, moisture barrier padding costs <b>$0.75 to $1.50</b> per square foot, varying by brand and mix. That&rsquo;s a lot more than standard padding, which runs <b>$0.25 to $0.90</b> per square foot. The price difference between these two options might seem steep, but think of it as insurance against future carpet replacement costs and subfloor damage. If you have pets or kids, that extra investment in high-risk areas like your living room often pays off.</p></div>

Q: Who do you hire for crawl space encapsulation?

• <div><p>Having a trusted crawl space contractor is the key to great encapsulation. If you're not sure <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hire-crawl-space-contractor.htm">how to hire a crawl space pro</a>, begin by asking your neighbors for referrals. Homes in your neighborhood will often have a similar foundation to your house, and personal recommendations are one of the best ways to find a contractor. Additionally, double-check that the contractor has experience with encapsulation as well as proof of their license and insurance.</p></div>
